Programme Structure

Academic Reading and Writing 2

There has been a need to continually improve the English quality of our students and provide them constant support at their Diploma levels. The module is designed for students to work intensively on their reading and writing skills. This is a more intensive module that improves students reading and writing skills, as these are the keys to understanding their subjects and effectively engage in class activities. These classes will address a variety of key demands of writing and reading assignments on their courses, focusing on both academic and language skills and the ability to write. The module will be delivered in a blended-learning environment, where students will have the opportunity to experiment and learn via both online and face-to-face lessons.

Business Accounting

The module aims to help students understand and apply financial and management accounting concepts, methods and systems relating to companies, partnerships, and government and not-for-profit organisations. It develops the theoretical aspects of accounting for cash, receivables, inventory and noncurrent assets. The accounting practice of different organisations is explored. Students will also learn cost accounting concepts, decision-making using cost information, and budget preparation.

Macroeconomics

The module introduces students to relevant macroeconomic concepts and principles. Macroeconomic models will be used to help students recognise the interdependence of important components of a macro economy. At the end of the module, students will be able to analyse and report the causes and consequences of economic growth, inflation and unemployment, and formulate appropriate macroeconomic policies to stabilise the economy.

Business Ethics

The module takes the view that ethical behaviour is the best long-term business strategy for a company – a view that is increasingly accepted by organisations around the world. This means that over the long run, ethical behaviour can give a company significant competitive advantages over companies that are not ethical. On this basis, the module will provide students with a deep knowledge of the ethical principles and concepts along with an understanding of how students can use this knowledge to deal with the ethical choices that they may encounter in the business world. Through a combination of exercises, case studies and video clips, the module encourages students to think through some concrete moral problems and allow themselves to be challenged by others who resolve the issues with different moral standards.

Business Decision Making

This is an introductory module in qualitative and quantitative methods which underpin effective business decision making. The module develops students’ ability to incorporate statistical thinking and to take account of variation in the real-world during processes of establishing project initiatives, defining objectives, data collection, presentation, analysis, reporting and decision making.

Principles of Accounting

The module provides a comprehensive overview of the fundamental principles of financial accounting and management accounting. It takes students through the entire process of accounting that includes recording, classifying and summarising accounting information into reports for decision making. It also introduces students to the double-entry system, the need for adjusting entries, the use of special accounts, and the preparation of financial statements. The module also includes budget preparation and management accounting techniques for business decision making. Students are also introduced to current issues such as ethical practices and social responsibility.

Management

The world is undergoing a tremendous upheaval. Organisations around the world are affected by technological advancements, economic integration, ethical turmoil and economic crises. Managing organisation has become more challenging (and exciting) than before. The module is designed to develop students’ understanding of key management theories/concepts and issues affecting managers. It begins by explaining the term ‘management’ and the value of studying management before turning to key functions of a manager. The four key management functions – planning, organising, leading and controlling – are discussed in detail to provide students an overview of the activities performed by a typical manager. Managers exist in all organisations regardless of their size, kind and location. By studying management, students would gain insights into the way managers behave, how organisations function, and what concepts one could adopt and adapt to be an effective manager in practice.

Marketing

The module aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the famous 4Ps and marketing tools that are commonly used by decision makers to retain and increase customer satisfaction and shareholders value. Students will have the opportunity to apply and reiterate the concepts learnt by means of a group project. Throughout the module, students will be encouraged to relate the subject contents to the marketing efforts that are put in place by ‘real’ firms, thus creating the opportunity to appreciate how concepts are put into practice.

Financial Management

It is well known that sound financial management is critical to a company’s success. Understanding personal finance is equally important as it pertains to the means of achieving one’s financial goals. The module aims to provide students with a good understanding of the principles and practices of financial management at the corporate and personal levels. It will enable students to keep in perspective the basic financial goal, practise better personal financial planning, understand the essentials of analysing financial statements, risk and return, time value of money, capital budgeting and investment valuation. Through case studies and exercises, students will understand the points that are being made in each of the topics and how they can be used to make better financial decisions.
